Replays show that Cavendish bumped shoulders with Sagan and was forced into the barriers, which he bounced off before landing heavily on his shoulder. Cavendish is receiving medial attention on the road, barely 50 metres from the line.

Elbow from Sagz. Hmmm... Not sure how Cav thought he could get through there though

Ja .. will have to watch it over and over and get the overhead view.. there was very little space there. Not sure if he was already losing his balance or if the elbow cause the loss of balance.. looks like Sagan kept his line.. but very hard to see.

    The overhead replay is not kind to Sagan, who appears to make a deliberate movement with his arm as he collides with Cavendish. Apparently he was angry with Greipel. There's going to be plenty of fall-out from this.

They were both contesting for someone's wheel

There was no space for Cav'

And Sagz had the advantage by being ahead of the Manx Missile at the time of the collision, I reckon. Sagz did not seem to have changed his racing line.

 

Haven't seen the replay...

 

Never lekka to see.

 

Shoulders and elbows are part of jostling for position.

Sagz was possibly using his elbows / body to accelerate or manoeuvre his bike.
